"Alright, everyone, take your seats!"
Emperor Long Yuan waved his hand and brought the Empress and Long Xian Er to the highest stage of the Purple Smoke Pavilion.
"Everyone, don't be so reserved. Today is Changle's birthday, so just enjoy yourselves!”
Long Xian Er said to the officials and nobles of the Great Tang below the stage.
At this moment, Long Xian Er had already removed her veil, revealing an exquisite and elegant face.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Everyone greeted Long Xian Er respectfully.
Then, the banquet officially began. The atmosphere gradually became lively with the singing and dancing.
At this moment, Prince Long Jiancheng stood up and came to Long Xian Er with a smile.
"Sister Xian Er, I wish you a happy birthday!”
After saying that, he opened the box in his hand. A luminous pearl the size of a longan lay quietly in the box.
There were a few lights flowing in it, indicating that this Deep Sea Night-Luminescent Pearl was not cheap.
"Thank you for your gift, Elder Brother. Xian Er will definitely treasure it well.”
Long Xian Er accepted the box and smiled.
"You're so thoughtful!"
Long Yuan looked at Long Jiancheng with satisfaction and praised.
"That's right! This child is really not bad."
Queen Snow White nodded.
"Father, Mother, this is what an elder brother should do for his younger sister.”
Long Jiancheng's face was filled with smiles. He knew how important Long Xian Er was to Long Yuan.
Therefore, he had spent a lot of money to find this precious Deep Sea Luminous Pearl half a year in advance to make his sister smile.
He understood that pleasing Long Xian Er was the same as pleasing Long Yuan.
Haha!
Ji Chen looked at the contented Long Jiancheng and shook his head.
He thought to himself,'This is how the crown prince of the Shengtang Empire behaves. No wonder the Shengtang Empire was destroyed by Donghuang Liyue.'
On the other hand, with Prince Dragon Jiancheng's appearance, it was obvious that it was time to give him a gift…
All the powerful officials of the Great Tang rushed to give Long Xian Er gifts.
After all, this was a good opportunity to perform. No one could miss it.
"Lord Liu, give me a thousand-year-old ginseng.”
" Lord Wu, I present you with a treasured sword---
"Lord Yuwen has gifted the Ferghana Stallion, Black Wind.”
"Lord Gongsun, this is a gift of the Seven-Colored Feather Coat.”
.................
No matter how lively the stage was, Ji Chen still sat calmly in his seat and tasted his wine…
He didn't seem to want to get involved at all.
Whether it was ginseng or swords, they were indeed very precious.
However, they didn't understand the current Long Xian Er.
Or rather, they only knew Long Xian Er from the past.
Long Xian Er, who had been cultivating in Ethereal Peak for three years, had become much more indifferent.
These things could not shake her heart at all.
Now, she liked painting, picking tea leaves, reciting poems, music, and listening to stories.
And it just so happened that most of these things she liked were what the so-called number one scholar of the Saint Tang Empire was good at.
As expected, Li Yuan Fang walked up to Long Xian Er with a scroll in her hand.
"Your Highness, I wrote a poem for you as a gift.”
"At the same time, I also want to use this poem to express my love for you.”
Wow!
As soon as he said this, the entire place was in an uproar…
This was simply a blatant confession!
Oh?
When Long Yuan heard this, he said with interest,
"Young Master Li is known as the number one scholar of the Great Tang. Today, Zhen wants to see what kind of love poem you have written for Zhen's daughter.”
After saying that, Long Yuan stretched out his hand and opened the paper placed in front of Long Xian Er's table.
The structure of the poem was very simple, but it contained true feelings.
Even Long Xian 'er was speechless.
Try to explain the scenery on the way, only to know the heart after parting.
Pedestrians are few and far between, and the wind and snow are deep in the mountains.
Everyone knew that Long Xian Er left Chang 'an three years ago to cultivate at Ethereal Peak…
In the same year, Li Yuanfang also resolutely left Chang 'an to travel the continent.
Everyone in Chang 'an knows
The Chang 'an that Long Xian Er wasn't in was not the Chang' an that Li Yuan Fang loved.
This poem was obviously written by him at that time.
He used only ten words to express his longing for Long Xian Er over the past three years.
It was indeed not bad!
Ji Chen nodded slightly. In his heart, he had a high opinion of the number one scholar of Chang 'an, Li Yuanfang.
If she really wanted to write poetry, she really couldn't beat him…
However, when it comes to memorizing poems,
Hehe, that would really be a blow to his reputation!
"Xian Er, what do you think? Mother feels that this poem is very good.”
Queen White Snow looked at the poem with fondness. The more she read, the more she felt that it was charming.
The more he read, the more sincere he felt.
"That's right! Young Master Lee is standing here, why don't you show your stance!”
Long Yuan smiled at Long Xian Er.
At this moment, Long Xian Er's gaze was a little evasive. She only admired Li Yuan Fang.
However, there was absolutely no love between a man and a woman.
"How should I refuse?"
Long Xian Er was a little embarrassed.
At this moment, she inadvertently noticed Ji Chen, who was quietly drinking at the side…
Also, the picture scroll that he had casually placed on the table…
For some reason, she spoke as if she was possessed.
"Daughter…His daughter wanted to see Young Master Ji's gift.”
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes instantly focused on Ji Chen…
However, Ji Chen didn't seem to notice and continued drinking.
At this moment, Long Xian Er stood up and walked to Ji Chen's table. She pointed at the painting on the table and asked,
"I wonder if this painting is a birthday gift from Teacher Ji to Xianer.”
Hearing this, Ji Chen raised his head and looked at Long Xian Er. Then, he said indifferently,
"If you want to see it, go ahead. However, I can't guarantee that you'll like it.”
Haha!
When Long Xian Er heard this, she picked up the painting and smiled at Ji Chen.
"As long as it's sincere, Xian Er will naturally like it.”
The powerful officials of the Saint Tang Empire nodded in agreement.
At the same time, they opened their eyes wide, wanting to see the world-famous Celestial Eradication Swordmaster.
Other than his heaven-defying combat strength, what was his talent like?
Not only them, even the Emperor, Empress, and Crown Prince were very curious.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the scroll in Long Xian Er's hands.
Whoosh!
He opened the paper and saw a woman…
The woman in the painting was tall and had a cold aura. She held a long sword in her hand.
Although her face was covered by a veil and her face could not be seen clearly, her beautiful eyes were extremely cold!
She was as beautiful as a fairy who had descended from the mortal world and could not be profaned.
"This... Is this me?"
Long Xian Er looked at the woman in the painting, and her eyes were filled with joy.
"It's you. It's the you I saw for the first time, and it's also the you in Chang 'an.”
Ji Chen gave Long Xian Er an affirmative answer.
Under Chang 'an Fortress?
Long Xian Er's beautiful eyes were a little dazed as a hint of joy appeared in her heart.
At that time, she and Ji Chen didn't talk much at Chang 'an Fortress, and it was only their first time meeting.
However, she still remembered the beautiful young man who held the fire lotus in his hand that day.
It would even appear in her dreams from time to time!
She didn't expect Ji Chen to still remember how she looked at that time.
At this moment, an indescribable feeling welled up in her heart.
Then, she saw a poem on the drawing paper.
The moment she finished reading, the smile on her pretty face froze…
At this moment, she felt as if all her strength had been drained by this poem.
The drawing paper fell weakly from her hand…
Her eyes were red and she gritted her teeth as she stared at Ji Chen.
This was…What was going on?
Why did Princess Changle suddenly become like this?
Everyone looked at the always cold Princess Changle in confusion.
Why did she become so depressed after seeing Ji Chen's drawing?
The guard picked up the drawing paper and handed it to Emperor Long Yuan.
When he read the poem, he immediately understood something…
Then he handed the scroll to the Empress.
Empress White Snow held Ji Chen's painting and softly muttered,
Autumn wind is clear, autumn moon is bright
The fallen leaves gather and scatter, and the jackdaw perches and is frightened again.
I don't know when I'll see you again, but I'm embarrassed now and tonight.
Enter my door of longing, know my longing pain.
Long longing ah, long longing ah, short longing ah, endless.
If I had known it would be so difficult, why didn't I know it at the beginning?
Read the whole poem
The entire place was silent!
This poem stirred up a storm in everyone's hearts and shocked everyone!
What kind of shocking talent and what kind of love did he have in his heart to be able to write such a poem!
After Li Yuanfang heard this, he directly collapsed onto the ground…
He laughed at himself. Compared to Ji Chen's love, his love seemed so thin and ridiculous!
What Chang 'an's number one talent? It was simply undeserved!
After listening to this poem, everyone finally understood why Princess Chang Le looked so resentful…
They now understood why Ji Chen was drinking cup after cup.
Everyone imagined that under Chang 'an Fortress,
The boy's fire lotus was shocking. He was like a god who had descended to the mortal world. He raised his hand to suppress Evil Sect's young Holy Son and instantly killed a Legend Realm expert with a backhand move!
As for the girl, her long dress fluttered in the wind as if she had descended into the world of mortals!
At this point, the two of them met and fell in love at first sight…
But the boy was engaged
Therefore, the ending of the two of them was bound to be a tragedy.
How could these two be friends!
This was clearly a pair of bitter mandarin ducks who had fallen in love but could not get it!
"Ji Chen, don't forget that you're engaged!“
Long Xian Er glared at Ji Chen with bloodshot eyes.
What he meant was, since you have an engagement, how can you fall in love with me!
However, everyone could tell that she was using the question to hide her messy heart.
I took another gulp of wine
Ji Chen stood up and looked at Long Xian Er's red eyes.
"I've never forgotten. Furthermore, it's normal to love but not get it. Your Highness, you don't have to mind.”
"I hope Princess will treat today's matter as a joke.”
"Forget it after laughing!"
When Long Xian Er heard this, her heart ached…
She gritted her teeth and asked in a trembling voice,
"Since I've already heard it, how can I forget?"
Ji Chen gently hugged Long Xian Er and whispered,
"Time is a good medicine. If Your Highness wants to forget, you can forget!”
After saying that, Ji Chen let go of Long Xian Er and took three steps back…
The heart is in turmoil
Just now, I tried using the Flying Dragon Cloud Probing Hand.
Long Xian Er didn't have the authority token of High Heaven Pavilion!
What should he do?
Long Xian Er stood rooted to the ground, stunned and stiff.
At this moment, a clamor was heard outside the Purple Smoke Pavilion.
"Catch the assassin, catch the assassin!"
